Liberty Global will move its Douglas County headquarters to a new building under development near downtown Denver's Union Station. <\/p>\n
Liberty Global, a spin off of John Malone's Liberty Media, is the first announced tenant of the Triangle Building at 1550 Wewatta St. <\/p>\n
The international cable company will occupy 70,000 square feet, representing three floors of the Triangle Building. <\/p>\n
\"It's a huge deal,\" said Chris Frampton, managing partner of building developer East West Partners. \"They're a massive company on the scale of DaVita and Chipotle. For them to have this cool, triangular building in the heart of everything that's happening in downtown Denver, that's pretty awesome.\" <\/p>\n
The $85 million, 10-story building is under construction and scheduled to be completed in June. East West has been a major developer in the Central Platte Valley and the Union Station area. <\/p>\n
\"The Triangle Building's modern and open architecture and collaborative office space are a great fit for us, and reflect what we stand for as a leader in the broadband communications and entertainment industry,\" Liberty Global CEO Mike Fries said in a statement. \"This move will bring us together under one roof and provide us with the best possible working environment, easy access for employees, and great visibility in the heart of the city we fondly call 'the home of cable.' \" <\/p>\n
The announcement is the second this week of a major office relocation to downtown Denver. <\/p>\n
Transamerica Investments and Retirement said it will move from the Denver Tech Center to 1801 California in a 120,000-square-foot lease that will allow Transamerica to eventually double its workforce to 650 from 325. <\/p>\n
Liberty Global was represented in the Triangle Building lease by Newmark Grubb Knight Frank. Cushman & Wakefield represented East West Partners. <\/p>\n
